Excel formula: Count cells equal to x and y

As you known, the COUNTIF function can count the number of cells that match with a specified condition. Here in this tutorial, it will provide some formulas to talk about counting cells that match with all given conditions, which we call it the AND logic with the COUNTIFS function.

Count cells equal to x and y

If you want to count cells meeting two conditions simultaneously, x and y, you can use the COUNTIFS function in Excel.

Generic formula:

Example:

Here is a table containing products, sales and prices, now you want to count the number of products which sales are larger than 10000 and price are larger than 100. Please use below formulas:

Or

In above formulas, $C$3:$C$7 is the first range to evaluate, $G$2 and “>10000” are the first criterion, $D$3:$D$7 is the second range to evaluate, , $G$3 and “>100” are the second criterion.

The press Enter key to get the counted result: 2 (Computer and Camera).

Count cells equal to multiple criteria

If you want to count cells equal to multiple criteria, for example, there is a table including three columns, Column Store, Column Product and Column Number, now you want to count the number of rows that meet three criteria:

Store: North*, which means that the store name must begin with North, * is the wildcard that indicates any character string.

Product: A.

Number: >2000

Using this formula

or

The press Enter key to get the counted result.

Tip:

For multiple criteria, just adding the range and criteria into the formula as this: COUNTIFS(range1,criteria1,range2,criteria2, range3,criteria3, range4,criteria4…rangeN,criteriaN) .
